I’m helping a friend settle an estate and need help with some pricing. I know metalworking but industrial woodworking is a whole new world to me. The owner was a very talented woodworker who was known for his staircases, but he could do most anything. I’m not looking for that pie in the sky, end of the rainbow buyer. I just want a middle of the road estimate and we can adjust as we see fit. Let’s consider the machines are in good, usable condition. Some may have accessories that would add to value and comments on what to look for would help. Example: steady and follow rest plus collets if it was a metal lathe, etc. These machines have been sitting in an unheated shop for a few years and may have some surface rust that can easily be dealt with. And we’ll probably do that before any sales. Let me know if I’m leaving out anything that would be helpful to know. This shop is in western Maine, an hour from Portland, 3 hours from Boston.
Any wisdom and insights are much appreciated by the family, (and me).
